Cuesta College men’s basketball set to host second annual summer skills camp

Local basketball players will have a chance to work with collegiate coaches next week when the second annual Cuesta College Summer Skills Hoop Camp begins.

Boys and girls ages 8 to 17 can participate in the four-day camp, which runs from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. next Monday through Thursday at Cuesta Gym. The cost is $150 per camper.

Cuesta College men’s basketball assistant coaches Casey Blair, Alex Raj and Alex Engel will lead each session along with some help from former area basketball players with collegiate and professional experience.

The daily schedule will include individual stations, full-court games and skills competitions, among other things. Players of all abilities, from beginners to elite, will be encouraged to focus on the fundamental aspects of the game in a fun and interactive environment.
